Elements of Chemistry Chapter 2
2.1  Matter Has Physical and Chemical Properties
“ Physical properties” describe the look or feel of a substance.
 
 
 
 
 
During a “ physical change” a substance changes some physical property…
… but it is still the same material with the same chemical composition.
Chemical Property: The tendency of a substance to change into another substance.
Oxygen Carbon
Carbon dioxide
Carbon dioxide Oxygen Carbon
Animation “CO2Flask.mov”
Chemical Change: Any change involving a rearrangement of atoms.
Chemical Reaction: The process of a chemical change...
During a “ chemical reaction” new materials are formed by a change in the way atoms are bonded together.

2.2  Atoms Are the Fundamental   Components of Elements
Element: Any material consisting of only one type of atom.
 
 
 
The Periodic Table
Atomic Symbol: One or two letters used to designate an element.
Carbon, C Calcium, Ca
Silver, Ag (Argentum) (Hydrargyrum) Mercury, Hg
Elemental Formula: Used to show how atoms within an element are grouped
 
N 2
2 Oxygen, O
3 Ozone, O

2.3  Elements Can Combine    to Form Compounds
Compound A material in which atoms of different elements are bonded to one another.
Sodium chloride
Sodium chloride Na
Sodium chloride Cl
Ammonia
Ammonia N
Ammonia H
A compound is represented by its…
chemical formula   The combination of atomic symbols of the elements of a compound
Ammonia
Ammonia,   NH   3
Sodium chloride
Sodium chloride, NaCl
Iron oxide   Fe   2   O   3   Compound  Chemical Formula
Iron oxide   Sulfuric acid   Fe   SO   2   O   3   H   2   4   Compound  Chemical Formula
Iron oxide   Calcium chloride   Sulfuric acid   Fe   SO   Cl   2   O   3   H   Ca   2   2   4   Compound  Chemical Formula
Compounds have properties that are uniquely different from the elements from which they are made.

Diversity! From so few elements…
The Periodic Table
Naming Compounds
Guideline 1 Start with the element farthest to the left in the periodic table…
Guideline 1 … for the element farthest to the right, add the suffix  -ide
Example NaCl
The Periodic Table
Example NaCl Sodium ine Chlor
Example NaCl Sodium ide Chlor
Example NaCl sodium chloride
Guideline 2 With different possible combinations of elements…
Guideline 2 … use prefixes to remove any ambiguity.
mono- di- tri- tetra- 2 3 4 1
Example CO CO 2 carbon monoxide carbon dioxide
Example H  O H  O 2 dihydrogen monoxide dihydrogen dioxide 2 2
Example H  O H  O 2 dihydrogen monoxide dihydrogen dioxide 2 2 Would you drink this??
H  O H  O 2 dihydrogen monoxide dihydrogen dioxide 2 2 (water) (hydrogen peroxide)
Guideline 3 Common names are also sometimes used for convenience.
2.4  Most Materials are    Mixtures
Mixture A combination of two or more substances…
Mixture … in which each substance retains its properties.
Examples
“ salt water” Examples NaCl H   O 2 +
“ Air” Examples N O 2 + 2
“ white gold” Examples Pd Au +
A mixture of a gas and a liquid?
The formation of a mixture is different from the formation of a compound.

2.5  Chemists Classify Matter    as Pure or Impure
Pure Consisting of only a single element or a single compound.
Pure Consisting of only a single element or a single compound. “ Ideal state”
Impure “ not pure”
Impure A mixture…
Impure … containing two or more elements or compounds.
Impure … containing two or more elements or compounds. Reality
